remove undervolt on processor

Hi guys,
I have an Asus P8Z77 VLX motherboard and an Intel Core i5 3570K,
I accidentally enabled the EPU on the Asus AI Suite which
has reduced the VCore voltage to 0.925V as a result of which I
am now getting just 1.6 GHZ D: . I disabled EPU from the AI Suite but that didn't get rid of the undervolt. Help, please...
 
1.6Ghz and that voltage is normal for the CPU when it idles.

Run CPU-Z and add a heavy load. Prime95 for example and see the changes.
 
Is the speed static at 1.6GHz at any load or fluctuates depending on load? IIRC the EPU is a different portion unrelated to the BIOS but you could try resetting the BIOS, pull off the battery if necessary. If all else fails, do a manual overclock.
 
yep, a n00b no more 😛
i just ran SuperPi (8 mins and 23 secs for 32 mil digits after decimal 😎) and the processor was running at 3.7 GHZ (my small achievement) and it switched back to 1.6 GHZ when i finished.
So, thanks again.
